captured at one time. This means you can run two eights with boat
Accelerometers or four fours with three boat Accelerometers, etc.
As mentioned previously, when you have finished selecting the oars
for your first boat, press
record
to configure a new boat. The message over
the detected oar box will now say “Assigning devices to boat #2”.
Configure your next boat. Press
mode select
when you are done
configuring boats to enter the
Display Mode
.
TIP:
Mixing Oars or devices between boats will lead to strange results,
since crews rarely row at the same rate with the same timing. Confine all
configurations to the same boat. For example, if you have 8 Oars and 8
Gate Angle Sensors, you could configure a boat with 8 Oars and two more
“boats” consisting of the bow 4 Oars/Gate Angle Sensors and the stern four
Oars and associated Gate Angle Sensors
.
You can even look at all eight
Gate Angle Sensors in one display to see how everyone makes their
catches.
In
Display Mode
, to move between boats, press and hold the
bookmark
button on older tablets for several seconds, or the
boat
button
on newer tablets. You cannot switch boats while recording. It is best to
make sure you are within range (close) when switching to a new boat. If
you are out of range when you switch, it may take ten seconds or so to
lock onto a new boat as you come into range.
C. Reassigning Oars
At any time, use the
mode select
button to move between
Assign
Oars
,
Display Mode
, and
Playback Select Mode
. By returning to
Assign
Oars
, you can reconfigure boats if desired.
